In 1981, Dr. Harada (the Japanese scientist) discovered that if you have Aldehyde Dehydrogenase defection (ALDH2 mutation), it will blush when drinking. This phenomenon is called Alcohol Intolerance. According to statistics, there are 560 million East Asians in the world who have the potential for alcohol intolerance. Up to half of Taiwan’s population has the potential for alcohol intolerance. Taiwan is the country with the highest rate of alcohol intolerance in the world, followed by China and Singapore 40% each.
